[@ericacosat9557]

Vinicius Nogueira that’s exactly what I thought 😂

[@autofotive]

They don't get Frank. We love you Frank, thanks for the killer show at Stubb's in Austin!!

[@sallad275]

Just brought him in and slapped him with back handed compliments and was roasting his music the whole interview. Wtf man

[@babykuttthroat3410]

Naw this genuinely pissed me off kuz wtf type of interview skills is this? These old heads are hella annoying for acting hella fake like that. I’m literally lookin Thru YT trying to find Hobo Johnson interviews n he only has a handful and I see why…😒🙄 This probably made him stray away from doing interviews

[@amiann6901]

Him saying that bright eyes was an influence makes SO MUCH SENSE

[@TommyBaysMusic]

You can hear it in the "and i helped you to your car in that shitty parking lot" line frome Mover Awayer.

[@MissyMari]

When you talk with a group of people you don’t know at a party

[@emmvold]

Couldn’t imagine a more awful interview group

[@trippymeows]

I was thinking the same thing. It’s like they just looked him up the morning of the interview

[@RobertMCELFRESH]

only found frank this year but man, he gets the people.

[@Pandadancer12]

Maaaan the whole time they’re just being passive aggressive as hell

[@arlo9485]

wow he’s absolutely perfect- I’ve never seen an artist quite like him.

[@MsMartinez1997]

straight up, love all of the energy from ya'll sticking up for Frank❤️ we can all agree he's an amazing artist and those were backhanded compliments af

[@whatamiwatching2183]

I could hear the Bright Eyes influence in his songs!!!

[@Jimmy-uy1xm]

They wont even let him answer one question before they ask like 5 more

[@UrbanwarriorTheSOV]

I love Frank. He is a genius writer. X

[@nickdavis2929]

So, I love Frank, but who is talking most of the time off camera.... Im confused

[@esmepoms]

nickdavis2929 😂😂😂😂 that’s Bean of Kevin and Bean. He actually works from his house and has for years.

[@artisticfruitloops5097]

I'm all here for mah bby💞👀😭he's so inspiring OKAY OKAY AND LOOK AT HIS SMILE

[@oso2k]

Oh man....back when KROQ was still awesome, Kevin & Bean was still on, and Hobo was blowing up. I miss these days. Now KROQ is half hip hop.

[@kikidowney282]

Bright eyes… I hear it good sir

[@chourtnii]

Frank is amazing

[@stefanianderson7584]

Oh how I love him

[@Mentalhealthadvocate]

Wow hobo on Kroq? He made it

[@matty543210098]

... franks hair changes so much it’s kind of crazy because he does not do much with it

[@b3ns]

how does this only have 3,000 views.

[@Sound_is_vibration]

This video has 30k views and one of hobo Johnson and the love makers has 2.9 million views ! And that video was made in the same year!

[@ayteen5880]

They called him *hobo* lmao

[@mostdope5020]

frank is the best 🥺

[@Jelisawesome]

I love Frank and the bois ♥

[@vanessagutierrez3514]

I had to stop at minute 2.. shit was rough.

[@OnlyYounew]

Lovely fuckin soul

[@zsleepspeachz]

His delivery reminds me of mike skinner (the streets)

[@tscurry2631]

I love you

[@ddave9535]

Suicidal tendencies was what i thought too

[@irohsteacup]

He's a cool guy that Frank.

[@SaRa___NiCoLe]

the WORST most disrespectful interview...

[@oskardegerfeldt1708]

Hobo is great.

[@samsteelman2150]

Invites frank to an interview to shit talk him the the entire time..... backhanded compliments are not compliments :)

[@ashlyannn]

I get mewithoutyou vibes

[@TheIrishMexicanMask]

ashlyannn big time

[@Xplorer228]

And Listener.. Which basically copied Mewithoutyou too.

[@ineedtostopwatchingyoutube5211]

I found hobo johnson and I never cringed so hard in my life

[@Jason_Van_Stone]

Where is Bean at? Did he move to England already?

[@lanceaguilar5505]

River Cats!. Go Sac!

[@patrickperkins7962]

This interview was cringe af. These guys are rude turds. Frank is awesome, his music is absolutely amazing and from the heart.

[@deleteaman]

Bruh. Let hobo speak

[@mattwardas3052]

loved 'The Fall of Hobo Johnson'... LOVED IT! but wtf happened with the latest album mannnnn. It's like he gave up. I want a Dog is genuinely one of the most beautiful songs I've heard, now his lyrics are about Indian food in Germany and not understanding MLK dying... he really did get revenge on his fans...

[@ashtynmorel-blake3452]

His name is Frank he even says it in a song… Not hobo… wtf…

[@Xplorer228]

A little boys Mewithoutyou. Or Listener.

[@benmeadows391]

Terrible interviewers, even if he was late.

[@Raspotnik]

Worst interview ever. You dont get it.

[@mdsoccer9]

People who are commenting on how this is an awful interview and they’re being passive aggressive have definitely never listened to the Kevin & Bean show. These guys are not being dicks at all. They’re fantastic and wonderful. If anything Hobo owes a lot of his success in LA to the K&B show, especially Jensen
